Top 10 Arnold Schwarzenegger Moments

Just when you think his career is over, he comes right back! Welcome to WatchMojo.com and today we’re counting down our Top 10 favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger moments!

We don't want to be girly men and focus on the overly cliché choices, so we’ll be showcasing his some of the slightly less known gems!

#10- One Man Army of Pain "Commando" (1985)

Kicking off our list is the film that let Arnie go commando! His kill count for this film sits at 81, and each is over the top! It was the 80s after all!

It’s like watching someone play a video game on very easy with an invincibility cheat! Seriously, how are they all missing him?

This flick gets extra points since Arnie gets to use every weapon imaginable, including some killer clever puns!

#9- Distraction “Total Recall” (1990)

On the top of Arnie’s invincibility, that comes up again in Total Recall. The bad guys here get a short glimpse of what it would be like to be competent, and successfully riddle the governator with bullets! However, their victory is short lived as Arnie’s maniacal laugh reveals that they’ve been duped by the old holographic decoy trick. Amateurs.

#8- Heaven “Pumping Iron” (1977)

Ever wanted to understand the mindset of a bodybuilder, specifically an Austrian holding the titles of Mr. Universe and Mr. Olympia? Well, you’re curiosity is satisfied in a big way as Arnie explains exactly how his body feels after hitting the gym! Sheesh, it’s no wonder he skips the cigarette and goes straight for the cigar!

#7- Choir Boy “End Of Days” (1999)

We’ve already established that Arnie is pretty much an action movie god. So how badass does that truly make him? Well, he is the only action star to ever show up the devil! And does he ever make old’pointy-tail look like a pansy when he throws him out a window.

#6- In Touch With his Feminine Side “Junior” (1994)

Arnie may be an unstoppable muscle-clad killing machine, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a feminine side! After becoming pregranant in Junior, the Austrain monster discovers the joys of womanhood! We’re still trying to regain our footing, especially after seeing Arnie in a gentle montage that is everything the montage from Rocky is not! Ironically, its not the first time Arnie’s worn a dress…

#5- Fuel For The Fire “Conan: The Barbarian” (1982)

Being a warm blooded man with the body mass of two warm blooded men, Arnie has needs! Accepting a seemingly too good to be true offer from a woman, he quickly learns why he should always wear protection. In this case, we’re talking about his sword, seeing his date turns into a gnarly witch! You can tell by the look in his eyes that he knows he’s made a huge mistake, so he decides to give her the cold shoulder and put an end to their short relationship.

#4- Attractive Contract "The Running Man" (1987)

In this deadly reality game show, Arnie upstages the hired killers trying to take him out on live TV. With the network fearing he might actually win, an executive offers him a sweetheart deal. Leave it to the Governator to find a colorful way of refusing the contract!

#3- Preferential Treatment “Commando” (1985)

Arnie has indiscriminately and ruthlessly killed anything and everyone in his way. At one point when he’s blackmailed into working for mercenaries, and along the way the big lug digs deep in his heart to promise mercy. Practicing for his future job as a republican politician, just 20 minutes later he flip flops on his promise and get’s her done.

#2- Shakespeare “Last Action Hero” (1993)

We’ve all been here! This kid is bored to tears learning about Shakespeare, and so he spruces up the lesson by daydreaming about Arnie in the role of Hamlet, thus turning the literary classic into a mainstream Hollywood movie. I think we’re looking at the answer to low attendance in our public schools…

#1- Terrifying Teacher “Kindergarten Cop” (1990)

Taking the top spot on our list is Arnie’s time spent leading a classroom of kindergarteners. Well, he isn’t a real kindergarten teacher, as if that wasn’t obvious enough! Watching him try and force discipline, play games and ultimately lose his temper at the fresh-faced little youngsters is pure uncut Austrian goodness.
